Image: A selection of concept art for Rudy’s character; he hasn’t changed much. The following description is typed on the image: “Kade’s little bro; snarky but means well. He kicks ass at video games and has countless ongoing stories in his head, but he’d never share any of them.”
Val: Well, here’s what he used to be like. Classic tagalong kid.
Val: Doesn’t seem like he’s changed much, huh? Which is weird, come to think of it, because Kade—
Val: Okay, you know how these two have a strict dad? Apparently Kade took the brunt of his anger growing up, higher expectations and all. So wouldn’t Rudy suffer like that now, too?
Val: Man, I hope he doesn’t. I kinda like the little guy.
Val: But come on, growing up as a younger sibling versus an only child? That’s gotta fundamentally change a person.
Val: Maybe it’s another sign the game’s badly-written.
